Get your Shine on with the Queen, the Mystic, and the Muse!

One of my favorite high school memories is going over to my BFF Travis's house each week senior year to watch Project Runway and work on our vocabulary words! So I do have a sweet spot in my heart for Project Runway, even though I don't watch it religiously now.

So when Project Runway teamed up with L'Oreal to create a range of products, I knew I wanted some.

They took a creative route and created four "mini-collections" in one big collection. The products are divided up into The Artsy Muse, The Enchanted Queen, The Seductive Temptress, and The Wise Mystic.

I grabbed up L'Oreal Colour Riche Le Gloss in The Queen's Shine, The Mystic's Shine, and The Muse's Shine (Sorry Temptress! Lol).

L-R The Queen's Shine, The Mystic's Shine, The Muse's Shine

The Mystic's Shine and The Muse's Shine are really more for layering, as you can see in the pictures below. (I used The Muse's Shine in this FOTD.)

The Queen's Shine

The first shade looks like a deep burgundy in the tube but unfortunately, it translates to a more vivid, bright pink on lips. I was really hoping for a darker color so this was a bit disappointing.

The Mystic's Shine

The next shade is a sheer, shimmery, lilac color. This would look great over berry hues! It makes my lips look a bit lifeless on its own.

The Muse's Shine

This is a shimmery gold color which will look great over reds and maybe hot pinks. This is also a layering shade.Overall, these shades are nice for layering; however, they aren't great on their own. I wish The Queen's Shine was more true-to-tube. Do you need these? Well, The Muse's Shine is great for layering over reds but I might skip the other two.I found mine in Target for $5.99 each. They're limited edition, so snatch 'em quick!

XOXO
